Pros

There are no specific pros that stick in my mind. The office was clean. The area was central to all the major cities.

Cons

I signed on with Manpower and was told that they will help place you with a position that will be a temp-to-hire. Two weeks later I was sent an email at 9pm saying I needed to come in to discuss a temporary position that only lasted two weeks. The commute was about 1 1/2 hours away for half of the time. They put you on the spot and were told to tell them right then and there due to it starting 2 days later. The next day when I was unable to come up with the gas money I professionally declined the position. I was then bombarded with emails and a call AFTER I requested to be pulled from Manpower services. They basically made me feel less than a human being for backing out of something I couldn't control with a day and a half of notice.
